    Yes I agree with the tightening still wondering if it’s that or BH... mines especially hard in the morning. My body cannot tolerate the heat very much either and overheats quickly these days. Thankful this babes will be here before the late summer heat hits.  
    TTC 4 years. 7 failed IUI's with either Clomid, Femara and/or Trigger Shots. Started IVF journey in February 2017. Polyps removed in May. 1st IVF Transfer September 26th. BFP. Expected due date 6/14/18. Baby boy born 5/25/18 at 6 lb 9 oz. My bundle of joy. 
  • I was just thinking that!! Glad this lil one is coming before the true summer begins.  Today I felt everything swelling not cute and I think I took too hot of a shower and felt very off today!! Have to remember I'm already hot enough next time.

    still not sure with what's going on with the tightening except baby is having a party and killing me!!

  • @ReesaAnne16. Ah!  You're getting so close!  How exciting!!!  :D
  • Waiting for the on call nurse to call me back. Had some bloody discharge this morning so felt I better be safe and call to see if they want me to come in. Still feeling the baby move so I’m not too worried. The nurse kept asking if I was having contractions - I have no idea lol!! I just kept saying general tightening here and there but nothing that’s painful and I figured it was just the baby pushing out or BH. I have an appt with my high risk dr on Monday so if they don’t have me come in today, at least I’ll be seen Monday. I’ll keep you all updated!
  • @mtpbadger keep us posted! Let us know if you end up going in.

  • On call OB had me come in so hooked up to some monitors now and waiting to be checked. Little girl keeps trying to kick the monitors off and moving away from them. Hoping it’s just nothing and I’ll be sent right Home!

    @mtpbadger keep us posted. Glad you called and went in. Hilarious that your baby girl is kicking off the monitors. Clearly she wants her privacy. 
    @hopeful_mom agreed on feeling off when you take too hot of a shower. I shower in cool water now.
    i think work gives me the BH. I've been fiiiiine all day today. :D

    Just got checked by the OB on call. Having some contractions (so that’s what they were!) but cervix is nice and closed thankfully. Have to stay put for the next few hours to monitor contractions and then recheck cervix to make sure it stays closed. They’re also checking for possible bladder infection or UTI just to cover all bases. Got a quick ultrasound and baby looks good, fluid levels are good.  I’m really glad I called now!!! This baby better stay put for another few weeks at least!
  • Glad you went to get checked! At least u kno ur baby girl is strong and likes her privacy! You probably need to take it easy sad upuve been doing lots of running around she wants all of your attention ;)

  • Thanks ladies!! I’ll keep you all updated in a few hours when i know more. This little girl sure keeps us on our toes already!! I sent DH Home to get my kindle and phone charger along with some food. Thankfully they said I can eat and drink. They were worried if she was breech I wouldn’t be able to eat just in case they needed to do an emergency c-section or something. One thing she’s been cooperative about...being head down!
  • coco305coco305 member
    @mtpbadger so glad you got checked. Let us know! 
  • Contractions stopped and got the all clear to go home and just take it easy for the rest of the day. No formal restrictions moving forward though. Drs not sure what was causing the contractions, I’m wondering if due to the heat and just being out and about I was slightly dehydrated. No idea what caused the spotting but she thinks it could have just been normal irritation and to keep an eye on it. At least we’ve done a real trial run at the hospital now lol! 
  • Glad you got the okay to head home. Hopefully it was just dehydration and the contractions stop for at least a couple weeks. Get some rest. :)
